The ramblings of a Creative Crone! I consider myself to be the Grandma Moses of the Fiber Arts World as I came to the art late in life. My blog will consist of my art; art of others; an occasional book review because when not creating, I am reading; perhaps an enlightening discussion on a favorite quote...and positive discussions of politics/world affairs only!

International Quilt Festival 2014

Last Sunday, Andrea and I boarded a bus at 5:30AM to take a one day trip to the International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas, a four plus hour drive. The show was fabulous...we spent every moment from the time we got there 'til time to leave at 4:00 on the run! There is so much to see!!! Here are some of the highlights of the quilts we saw...

The above three are the same quilt....pretty amazing looking at it from three different angles!

This is the Best of Show..the big winner!

And we even found time to do a little shopping! Here are my purchases! As though I NEED more fabric!
